Description
Easy to spot due to the bolt line and chains at the top of the left wall. This route goes up broken blocks at the start (be careful!), up to a small roof, then step left and up the huecos (those are the gravity waves!). This formation is unique in that it looks like somebody took a giant ice cream scoop to sculpt a panel of the wall, reminiscent of “5 Gallon Buckets” at Smith Rocks. There are 5 bolts total. There is a rap station that can be easily accessed for toproping or lowering, or you can walk off left down the gully. This route is suitable for toproping as you can easily access the anchors. Follow the climber’s trail and look for a small cairn near the top of the wall.
Descent: Either rappel from the anchors or walk off climber’s right.
